Boys Street

Famous quotes containing the words boys and/or street:

    But boys and girls, pale from the imagined love
    Of solitary beds, knew what they were,
    That passion could bring character enough
    And pressed at midnighht in some public place
    Live lips upon a plummet-measured face.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    The invention of photography provided a radically new picture-making process—a process based not on synthesis but on selection. The difference was a basic one. Paintings were made—constructed from a storehouse of traditional schemes and skills and attitudes—but photographs, as the man on the street put, were taken.
    Jean Szarkowski (b. 1925)
